Forget the stereotypes you’ve heard about lazy millennials who don’t want to work – young Australians are becoming increasingly concerned about their ability to find a job and achieve their career goals after high school.
Travel has long been a staple of doing business, but millennial employees are changing the way it’s done.
Often called the ‘Me Generation’, Gen Y has been tagged by many employers as a group of workers who ‘want it all without having to work for it’.
From shiny new devices to speedy software and the rise of the cloud, there’s more technology to help businesses succeed than ever. Yet Australian business operators are still hesitant to embrace it.
If the stereotype is to be believed, Gen Ys are lazy and apathetic – but new research has found that engagement among young workers mirrors that of their older counterparts.
The much-maligned Gen Y ask why it’s so hard to get a foot in the door, and employers ask why kids these days are so lazy, but feel so entitled.
Don’t be too quick to dismiss Gen Y workers as being not up to the job. You’re likely to see more innovation and creativity from them than any other employee.
Money’s not enough to keep Gen Y motivated and productive. So what do these folks really want?
Generation Y has excellent saving skills but more debt than ever before, according to new research by REST Industry Super.
Managers find Gen Y staff easier to work with than the challenge of Baby Boomers, according to research conducted by Leadership Management Australasia (LMA).
